This is my kind of pizza. Absolutely love it. The crust, the topping everything is so healthy and pizza looks perfect to me.
Oh my gosh, I just love goat’s cheese!! I don’t get to eat it much because my husband is not keen!! Definitely making this tomorrow though – and I get to have it all to myself!!!
Spinach pesto and goat cheese are wonderful ingredients for pizza! Making individual ones is so nice, they look pretty and delicious!
I’ve never met a pizza I didn’t love. It is such a pleasure to eat and enjoy. I was a bit skeptical about using a different kind of dough – I was pleasantly surprised. It is certainly a great way to save on calories and still maintain some of the pizza flavor. I’ll be making this for lunch often.
This is such a creative use of some of my favorite ingredients, starting with the cauliflower in the crust and in the cheese topping. Besides, the little pizzas look beautiful and rustic.
